About This Song: Here’s a little quickie appealing to my lyric fetish for religious imagery (of which you may hold Mr. Armstrong responsible). It’s a recent re-write of a song I wrote in 2010, about the breakdown of a relationship between God, or any other higher power, as belief alone fails to save you when you...

Hell for Leather
I’d like to formally introduce this song as the little bastard that has been shamelessly dancing around my consciousness for five, long, years. Meet the phantom title that has caused me so much God damned stress as a songwriter, that has plagued me as a lyricist, and puzzled me as a poet: here is “This Every Second”.
...
So this is a little bit different to my usual blog posts, but it’s something I wanted to put on here in case anybody wants to listen / download it. There’s an acoustic cover of Lady Gaga’s Alejandro on YouTube that I have always admired, by an unsigned guitarist called...
About This Song: This is a re-vamped version of a song I posted in my old lyric thread, called “The Last”. It is a simple, honest love song which I haven't layered in meanings, or metaphors, because the words just speak for themselves. The story is about not being your partner's first love, but falling for them so much, that you...
About This Song: Written 05/11/2012. I'll keep this brief in case I spoil it: this song's early completion is utterly, unashamedly inspired by tonight's first listen to Lazy Bones. Keep that style in mind when you listen. I won't say more than that. Unrelatedly (I stress this!), this song is about when reckless fun trips...
There are a few reasons why I haven't updated my GDC blog since the beginning of August; the main being that I was going to wait until I'd finished my magnum opus - Hell for Leather, nonetheless. Between meticulously planning that and flitting in and out of the house making the most of the summer, I wasn't able to think of anything substantial...
Brand NEW song! I was inspired to include this as a response to my last new entry, Quiet Wars. Although I’m happy with the song as a whole, I felt that a lot of the meaning was lost in translation through double meanings and metaphors which, when writing for pop,...
About this Song: These lyrics are about the intense exposure and brutality of the pop-stardom limelight, and how it inevitably transforms an artist who cares more about the art than the celebrity game. Written in May, 2012. Comments & criticisms are greatly appreciated!...
This song is NEW as of today! 
I thought I'd mix some brand new pieces into the handful of older lyrics I'm moving from my writing thread to see if I can drum up a bit of new interest. What I'd really like from this blog is to catch the eye of new readers on the main page, and to hear their thoughts too. So, without further chat from me,...

About the Song: This song is about the constrictions of organised religion when it comes to having the "wrong" kind of sexual desires, from adultery to homosexuality. Love Bursts from Guns is about lust, sex, identity, feeling trapped by your own beliefs, and eventually wanting to break free for just one night - as long as you can repent your sins...
About the Song: I wrote Concrete Wasteland about being in love in the underground, amidst an atmosphere of booze, 80's pop and Texas Hold'em at midnight. It's about making trashy glamour out of nothing but romance and a bad neighbourhood in the middle of winter. Written in December, 2011. Comments and criticisms are greatly...
